Word now come iront the English purchasers that Canadian poultry is too big and too fat. What is wanted • are smaller and younger birds carrying as much esh, not fat, as possible. It will be interest- ing to find out what has led up to such a state of affairs. Have we got certain breeds too large ? The diM- .culty caul(' quickly be got over but in connection with it the statement is made that at three months of age Plymouth Rocks and Wyttadottes have too much breast bone with too little flesh ; •that Rork legs have still less _ flesh and that the buff Orpington is also.inclined to both drawbacks. Can It be that the chicken to suit the ex- acting English market is yet to be produced, Or will it be necessary to fall back upon pullets to fill • the re- quirement of plump and meaty breast Willi correspondingly satisfactory thigh and leg flesh ? Or will the Dorkings come . to the fore again ? There is no neceasity in the mean- ' while for panie on the pail of Ply- mouth Rock, Wyandotte or • Orphing- ion holders because it will have to be a,.• very . superior bird that will out- class the breeds •itiened as winter lay- ers and rapid flesh makers.

Green clover turned under is spee- ially valuable to the land because while growing it absorbs large quan- tities of nitrogen from the air and, i which is stored up in its tissues. A j ',navy mat of growth is produced by the autumn ..which, when ploughed an - dr, adds considerably to the avail- able nitrogen of the soil as well as to tbe store of humus. The proportion of nitrogen thus added to the lathi is equal to that obtained from a dress- ing of ten tons of barnyard manure to the . acre. Considerable supplies of potash, phosphoric acid end lime are - also taken up by the clover plant dur- ing its growth, a pert of which is gathered from depths in the soil not reached by some other farm crops.
